Microcausality -- the vanishing of commutators outside the lightcone -- is a fundamental property of relativistic quantum field theories. We derive its implications for two-point functions of scalar operators on {\it Lorentz-breaking}…

Given $\Omega$ bounded open set of $\mathbb R^{n}$ and $\alpha\in \mathbb R$, let us consider \[ \mu(\Omega,\alpha)=\min_{\substack{v\in W_{0}^{1,2}(\Omega)\\v\not\equiv 0}} \frac{\displaystyle\int_{\Omega} |\nabla v|^{2}dx+\alpha…

This paper is concerned with a study of the classical isoperimetric problem modified by an addition of a non-local repulsive term. We characterize existence, non-existence and radial symmetry of the minimizers as a function of mass in the…

We consider the volume-constrained minimization of the sum of the perimeter and the Riesz potential. We add an external potential of the form $\|x\|^{\beta}$ that provides the existence of a minimizer for any volume constraint, and we study…

We consider a fractional version of Gauss capillarity energy. A suitable extension problem is introduced to derive a boundary monotonicity formula for local minimizers of this fractional capillarity energy. As a consequence, blow-up limits…

We consider the problem of finding and describing minimisers of the Rayleigh quotient \[ \Lambda_\infty \, :=\, \inf_{u\in \mathcal{W}^{2,\infty}(\Omega)\setminus\{0\} }\frac{\|\Delta u\|_{L^\infty(\Omega)}}{\|u\|_{L^\infty(\Omega)}}, \]…

We establish a good lambda inequality relating to the distribution function of Riesz potential and fractional maximal function on $\left(\mathbb{R}^n, d\mu\right)$ where $\mu$ is a positive Radon measure which doesn't necessarily satisfy a…

We study the massless Maxwell system on fixed sub--extremal Kerr-Newman exteriors. In the weak Kerr--Newman regimes with $0<|a|\le c_a M$, $0<|Q|\le c_Q M$, and $c_a,c_Q \in (0,1) $, we prove non--degenerate boundedness, Morawetz /…

We present a unified, SI-consistent framework to constrain minimal SME coefficients $a_\mu$ and $b_\mu$ using magnetically confined two-dimensional electron systems under a uniform magnetic field. Working in the nonrelativistic…

This paper investigates the asymptotic behavior of a class of nonlinear variational problems with Robin-type boundary conditions on a bounded Lipschitz domain. The energy functional contains a bulk term (the $p$-norm of the gradient), a…

In a recent paper we demonstrated how the simplest model for varying alpha may be interpreted as the effect of a dielectric material, generalized to be consistent with Lorentz invariance. Unlike normal dielectrics, such a medium cannot…

Energy functionals describing phase transitions in crystalline solids are often non-quasiconvex and minimizers might therefore not exist. On the other hand, there might be infinitely many gradient Young measures, modelling microstructures,…

In this paper, using a discrete Schwarz rearrangement on lattice graphs developed in \cite{DSR}, we study the existence of global minimizers for the following functional $I:H^1\left(\mathbb{Z}^N\right)\to \R$, $$I(u)=\frac{1}{2}…
